For the larger local government district, see London Borough of Redbridge. Human settlement in England
RedbridgeLocation within Redbridge is a district of Ilford, located within Essex. It is home to Redbridge Institute of Adult Education and Redbridge Football Club.
Etymology
The name comes from a bridge over the River Roding which was demolished in 1921. The bridge was made of red brick, unlike other bridges in the area made of white stone. The name was later applied to the wider London borough created in 1965. The bridge was earlier known as Hocklee's Bridge.
History
The Redbridge formed part of the ancient parish of Barking, Essex. In 1888 it became part of the new civil parish of Ilford. The civil parish became a local board district in 1890, urban district in 1894 and municipal borough in 1926. The Municipal Borough of Ilford was abolished in 1965 and its former area became part of the London Borough of Redbridge in Greater London.
The former town hall in Ilford is now known as Redbridge Town Hall.
Transport and locale
The nearest London Underground station is Redbridge on the Central line.
